Experience the Mediterranean Sea with Seaze The Day charters! Captains Panagiotis and Minos are experienced fishermen who joined forces to help other people an amazing time on the water. They are eager to show you the fascinating landscapes of Crete and its surrounding islands and help you to catch that fish you have always wanted.

These 2 fishing enthusiasts invite you to join them on their 35’ Cobra Royal boat that accommodates a group of 5 anglers. She’s been newly restored in 2019 and is powered by twin 200 HP Nanni Diesel engines.

Capt. Panagiotis is a licensed diving instructor, so you can be sure you’re in good hands if you choose a spearfishing trip. Snorkeling and spearfishing equipment are partially provided. You need to bring wetsuits, masks, and fins, while the spearguns will be provided.

You can choose if you want to go one mile off the coast or even up to 50 miles offshore. It all depends how big of fish you want to catch. Your main targets will be Grouper, Dentex, Snapper (Common Pandora), and Squids (Calamari). After the trip, the crew will share the catch with you and you can ask for it to be prepared in a local restaurant.

Your fishing equipment and drinks will be provided. If you’re interested having a super interesting and original memory of this day, you can request a drone shooting at an extra cost.

Member since January 2019
I'm Panagiotis and I started fishing when I was 5 years old. I remember going with my father, who was my first teacher for spearfishing. I have always been close to the sea, and from a very young age learned to dive deep, which gave me the advantage to learn quickly about the habits of fish. I became a freediver and a freedive-instructor. For a long period of my life, I was a professional fisherman on the island of Crete, and that's the reason I am the most suitable to show you around the beauty of our sea, nearby the city of Chania in Crete. I am the owner of two very reliable professional RIB boats where we can go fishing and I can assure you that you will want to come back and experience this adventure again!
